Girls Aloud - HMV Signing - PART 4

1. The HMV wristband.
2/3. The two 12", four CD2, one CD1, one Promo and Nicola signed "The Show Promo. At the bottom of the picture are the flyers.

Totally enjoyed this afternoon, I felt lucky to be one of the fans to have stuff signed and to finally have a quick chat with Sarah and Nadine. Full credit to the Girls for doing the signing at HMV.

Girls Aloud - HMV Signing - PART 3

1. Nicola gets busy signing my "Long Hot Summer" CD's.
2. Kimberley Walsh gets her signature down to a fine art.
3. Nadine has time for a photo opportunity.
4. Cheryl may be looking down but she's also looking great.
5. Sarah is shocked at my 12".

The waiting was totally worth it, this was my first record signing and it was worth not having my afternoon sleep. It's got to be hard for them to sign record after record as well as try and talk to the fans. The security men were friendly and did their best to keep everything organised and flowing so we all got something signed or had a quick chat with the Girls.
I thanked the Girls for coming to the Midlands and said it made a change from going to London. Nadine and Sarah were chatting to me and said it was nice to come somewhere different rather than the "same old same old".

Then they commented on me being in my postman's uniform saying "Wow a real live postman ...... in shorts as well!" Sarah asked if I'd bought all the formats I'd asked them to sign and I said "Yeah", they replied with a "Thank you so much for supporting us".
The picture above with Nadine made me laugh because she was busy signing the CD's then just automatically looked up with this big grin on her face ready for my phone to take a picture - bless her , she was on auto pilot!
Cheryl, Kimberley were busy signing to have a chat and poor Nicola almost forgot to sign my 12".

Bonus: *We were treated to meeting Cheryl's dog as he was paraded before us as we waited to meet Girls Aloud.

Girls Aloud - HMV Signing - PART 2

1. Cheryl, Nicola and Kimberley really get into the signing.
2. The Girls hard at work while Sarah chats away.
3. Sarah proving she signs CD's as well.
4/5 Girls Aloud pose before the large crowd at HMV Birmingham.

Girls Aloud HMV Signing - PART 1

Alex had arrived in Birmingham nice and early to get a few more copies of the Girls Aloud single "Long Hot Summer" and got us a wrist band ready for the 5pm signing at HMV. I was busy getting wet delivering mail in Coventry as the bottom picture shows!
It was a rush getting over to Birmingham so I just caught the train in my uniform and tried not to stand out too much.
Meanwhile ITV were recording fans for a TV special about "Being Girls Aloud", which will be shown later this year - watch out for my bright orange coat!!

My Summer Song

The Coral "In the Morning" is THE Summer song for 2005, I never tire of hearing this tune. It's one of those songs that ALWAYS makes me happy and lifts me into "Robbieworld".
Now thanks to Alex, it is part of my record collection. It might take me a few years to learn the lyrics but I'll give it a try!

Girls Aloud v Spice Girls

Now this IS heaven.............. a night of Spice Girls/Girls Aloud music!
This Friday in London @G-A-Y, they have a special night of music from the two best girl bands in the world.
Pity I won't be there to shake my ass, I'm also gonna miss out on seeing Girls Aloud perform @ G-A-Y this Saturday 20th August.

Here's the review from the G-A-Y website:

This Friday (19th Aug) THE CAMP ATTACK CLASSIC HALF HOUR THEME IS GIRLS ALOUD vs THE SPICE GIRLS 2 Of The Biggest Girl Bands Battle It Out alternating between their biggest hits GIRLS ALOUD Hits include SOUND OF THE UNDERGROUND, NO GOOD ADVICE, LIFE GOT COLD, JUMP, THE SHOW, LOVE MACHINE, I'LL STAND BY YOU, WAKE ME UP, & the new single "LONG HOT SUMMER" SPICE GIRLS Hits include WANNABE, SAY YOU'LL BE THERE, 2 BECOME 1, MAMA / WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, SPICE UP YOUR LIFE, TOO MUCH, STOP, VIVA FOREVER, GOODBYE & HOLLER.

There isn't really any competition between the two groups - both are awesome in their own way. The Spice Girls hype was out of this world and had an effect on a generation, whereas Girls aloud look stunning and make great "pop" songs.

Big Brother 6 : Craig Evicted!

I've waited long enough for this ............. finally Craig has been booted out of the Big Brother House, pity he lasted so long!
His personality was sooooooooooooooooooooo annoying, he makes even Eugene seem interesting!
At least Anthony will be able to sleep safe from the bunny boiler now................

Spice Girls Gone Wrong!

The World Wide Web is a wonderful place but dig deeper and it can be quite scary, and I'm not talking about chat rooms or porn!
I was searching for some Spice Girls pictures so I could do the next Blog "Desperate Spicewives" but just look at a few of the pictures I found on the web..............

Caption of the Week- Return of the Mummy

The Scene: The driver looks horrified as the Beckhams get into the back of the car after a night out at the Ivy in London.
The Caption: "She's looking darker than that Melanie Brown at her darkest and slimmer than Geri at her slimmest!"

If I Could Swop Bodies Part 1

I would transport myself inside the body of David Beckham (if I had to choose a famous person to inhabit!).
There would be three things I would have to change though:
1. No tattoos because it detracts from the perfect body.
2. The voice would have to go (sorry David but it's just too girlie!!)
3. Victoria Beckham would have to get out of the house and get a proper job instead of sponging off me!
